Based in Taiwan, Zhi-Shan Foundation is the premier partner organization for child and youth development in Asia. Over the past two years, we have accompanied over 300,000 children and youth annually in Taiwan, central Vietnam, Lijiang in Yunnan, and Shan State in Myanmar, ensuring they have enough to eat, access to education, and the opportunity to thrive.
Zhi-Shan has always operated in remote and challenging areas. In Vietnam, we have long been promoting programs, such as scholarships, literacy, early childhood care, and medical treatment in the resource-scarce central six provinces, to provide care to children with medical and educational needs. In Taiwan, Zhi-Shan has deeply invested in the indigenous communities of Jianshi and Wufeng in Hsinchu, from maternal and child care to education and talent development in tribal areas. We also support and empower indigenous children and women who have relocated to urban areas, helping them regain cultural confidence and achieve economic independence. Since 2006, we have ensured that children in the mountainous area of Lijiang, Yunnan have stable access to education and opportunities to explore and find joy in learning, as we work to improve the quality of rural education through teacher training and mental health education.
For nearly 30 years, Zhi-Shan has upheld the principles of respecting diverse cultures and loving kindness without borders; has rallied grassroots efforts to aid in the development of disadvantaged areas; and aspires towards global unity and benevolence.
How Donations Are Utilized:
Funds raised and managed centrally by Zhi-Shan Foundation will be mainly used for the development of children and youth in the "By your side" plans at key service sites (Taiwan, Vietnam, Yunnan and Myanmar) in Asia.
